I'm sure, years ago I was trying to find an old Amiga game where you had to fit Tetris shapes into a grid but rotating and flipping them. I could have sworn I found it and posted it here somewhere, does that sound familiar to anyone?

I was loading, redrawing and saving 30+ images in the following way, because it was straight forward when there was only a couple of images at the start. Then I realised yesterday, that to do that, I don't actually have to know anything about th*snip*

Loads a 128x128 image, displays it in the centre of the screen. It turns out that the sacle of the sprites are directly related to the width of the window, no wonder I couldn't scale it properly.
